Collapse AllWandsworth All Star Doubles - Round 8 | Thursday 15 June 2017 to Wednesday 23 August 2017 (Midpoint: Wednesday 19 July 2017)
It was another successful doubles round in Wandsworth All Star Tennis League, with you collectively managing to play over two thirds of all possible matches, which is a great effort when 4 players are involved per match! Congratulations to James & Luke for claiming the overall top spot for the second round in a row, but there were close and competitive matches across the groups. Great tennis!
Group Summary:
It was very close at the top of Group 1, with only one point separating winners James & Luke from runners up Nick & Gordon, although both pairs won 3 matches. Although our winners lost their head to head against Nick & Gordon in 3 sets, the set they won proved crucial in giving them one extra point at the end of the round. So congratulations to James & Luke for retaining their title from Round 7. In fact a lot of the match commentaries reveal close matches and long rallies across the group, so well played everyone!

Well done to Jon & Philip for playing all their matches and topping the group with 4 wins, closely followed by Dee & Chris who went one better than in Round 7 by finishing as runners up. Jon & Philip were dominant in their head to head though, sealing their group win. Meanwhile, Dee & Chris and Maria & Darren enjoyed their match so much they played a friendly third set after it was won in two... that's what we like to see!
